The iPad has somehow saved the wrong password for my wireless network.

My iPad is unable to connect with my wireless network at home. Other wireless devices are able to do so. The iPad can connect to other wireless networks. My conclusion is the iPad must have the wrong password for the wireless network. I have tried to tell the iPad to forget this network so I can put the password back in but this doesn't help. I don't want to reset all the network settings if I can help it. Is there some way to remove this network setting without removing all the others.

Thanks

Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.6)

After you go to Settings > WiFi > choose the network, then select Forget this network. That should clear just the one network and you can then start over and manually reenter the network information. Typing the password can be a little difficult with the touch screen...luckily the character you have just typed is displayed in plain text for a couple seconds before being replaced with a dot.

Makes it a little slower but you get to see the entry values that way.
